This wraps up removal of bolts. New bolts are here and two more coming.
This will allow me to roll the 60 in place and bolt in a complete assembly. Once thats done I can work on the rear to get that rear gear ratio matched and add 4" factory blocks to make same as 1 ton
So far so good I cant wait to have this wrapped up and under the truck.
The 60 I am rebuilding will go in later with new u bolts and so forth.
Thanks for looking.
